Graphically it’s actually a looker, considering the raw material in real life remains looking a tad being a vacant lot. An exclusive mention must go to the athlete models, whose every muscle twitch and drop of sweat sometimes appears during events - in the event you look hard enough. Or you'll just watch the slow motion replays afterwards. Sadly, however, while they did head over to great lengths to capture the realistic movements of athletes, there obviously wasn’t the budget left to work with their likenesses, so still no 100 meter dash as or against Mr Bolt personally.

There is a build a character feature, but don’t expect anything comprehensive. Sticking from the realms of realism does mean your character will only be competing in a chosen discipline, taking part in a few events at most, until you make questionable decision to surgically alter and rename the complete GB squad.

Pretty much everything can be a far cry from 49 Games‘ polar opposite unofficial entry Summer Stars, and everything on SEGA’s part oozes the type of quality production that any of us’ve arrive at expect from their store. Obviously they won’t be winning a lot of awards for innovation, they have excelled in a area where they might easily have coasted. Fingers crossed that Seb Coe gets it this right using the genuine article.


The disciplines offered cover precisely what you’d expect those to, though there might be a couple of people who question London 2012′s options menu. The important hitters – track, field and aquatics – are amply catered for altogether their sub-divisions, however in a lot of the remaining other sports – like cycling, rowing, resistance training, shooting and ping pong – exactly the men’s groups are playable. It appears as if a bizarre choice, and that i can’t really fathom why. Oh, actually, there is one female-competitor only segment. That’s right. The beach volleyball. To ensure that’s cleared that certain up.

Still, whatever you decide, be confident will probably be fun to learn. The controls are that perfect balance of an easy task to learn but hard to master, therefore you’ll never feel cheated beyond a victory by dodgy AI or shoddy mechanics. Despite having the grim spectre of Kinect the athletes are perfectly responsive and playable, though in case you have several other friend over it’ll be pads over-all.
